President Donald Trump’s Department of Justice just got a leader to oversee its newly created unit to prosecute fraud, and it so happens he’s from California, which has been making headlines for its alleged fraud cases.
The US Senate on Tuesday confirmed Colin McDonald, an associate deputy general at the Justice Department, 52 to 47 to be in charge of the DOJ’s new fraud division.
The division is part of a broader attempt by the Trump administration to declare “war on fraud” that was exposed in Minnesota and could also appear in California.
“Similar schemes are now surfacing within California’s hospice system, where some providers are overbilling Medicare by millions of dollars and foreigners have reportedly obtained hospice licenses,” Chairman James Comer (R) of the House Oversight Committee told the Post.
Hospice fraud may be an area where McDonald may start looking into, as Comer claimed that California Gov. Gavin Newsom and state Democrats failed to act on red flags raised by audits and media reports. The Oversight Committee is now requesting communications and documents from Newsom’s office regarding the fraud.
McDonald could end up working closely with Vice President JD Vance, who called the prosecutor “a great choice” and a “key asset in the War on Fraud.” Vance was announced earlier in March as the chair of the Task Force to Eliminate Fraud.
“Colin will have nationwide jurisdiction at the Justice Department to prosecute the bad guys,” the vice president told the New York Post.
McDonald, described by Trump as a “very Smart, Tough, and Highly Respected AMERICA FIRST Federal Prosecutor,” went to San Diego Christian College and graduated from the California Western School of Law, according to his LinkedIn.

...but there is a long game.
I’m patient.
You think Hillary loves her grand babies? lol
Yes. I had high hopes for DOGE. JD should hire many forensic accountants for this task. There is fraud in every state. AG Yost (OH) has opened investigations but the suspects hire good attorneys which delay proceedings to exhaustion.
Good ol’ corrupt California.
No travel needed. “Close to home.”
Sort of like the Subway Series in baseball. Most recent was NY Yankees vs. NY Mets in 2000. Early name was the “Nickel Series” because subway rides cost 5 cents in 1927, but the next name became “subway series” in newspaper stories in 1928.
I think that once Trump gets the international situation in order in the next few months then he’s really gonna ramp up his domestic agenda. There’s a reason the mainstream media wants America to invade, they want Republicans bogged down in a war without too little juice for tackling domestic issues.
As 4/15 approaches, I remain in mental revolt over all of the fraud that the Feds continue to allow to perpetuate.
California Western School of Law and San Diego Christian College? WOW! Lower ranked schools without the stellar reputation of the Ivy Leagues or Stanford/UC Berkeley.
EXCELLENT CHOICE in my opinion. Solid education without the arrogance and progressive nonsense.
